Changes for W3Kit 2.1

Version 2.1 is available as a patch to version 2.0. It contains the following changes:

Experimental mouse-drag handling was added to the W3PostScript class, based on undocumented features of X Mosaic. When HTML 3.0 becomes available, this hack will be replaced by the standard SCRIBBLE widget, which combines pen input with image display.

An X11_Graphics widget was added for those unfortunate enough to have to do their 2D graphics in straight X.

The Path2_copy() function was fixed.

The W3Radio widget was enhanced to allow the buttons to be printed separately. This is useful in the construction of graphical menus.

An Expires: header was added to W3Kit output to make absolutely sure that FORM output isn't cached by proxy servers.

Note: Because class versioning is buggy for abstract classes in GNU Objective-C, W3Kit pages stored by remote users will not be compatible between versions 2.0 and 2.1 of W3Kit. (This problem does not affect NeXTSTEP-based servers.)
